Ohio mother Kristel Candelario has been given a life sentence after her child Jailyn died last year from being left home alone in Cleveland during a 10-day vacation.
Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.
"Just as you didn’t let Jailyn out of her confinement, so too you should spend the rest of your life in a cell without freedom," County Common Pleas Court Judge Brendan Sheehan told Candelario. "The only difference will be, the prison will at least feed you and give you liquid that you denied her."
Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael O’Malley said following the sentencing that "The thought of going on vacation for 10 days and leaving your child to starve to death in her Pack-N-Play is a new low in parental care."
